Hey Alois and Jeff,

Hi Machan,
Is your opponent serving a backspin ball? If so and it is fairly low it can be hard to flick and you might be better off trying to push the ball back. The other thing you can try is to open up the angle of your bat more to counter the backspin. This helps you lift the ball up as we discuss in the lesson.
Try this out and let me know if it helps.
